Problem Statement
Currently, apart from UserPromptSubmit, hooks do not read stdout as context.
However, I believe that supporting this in other events as well could greatly enhance extensibility.
For example, before reading a specific file, the system could also load additional context, enabling more context-rich operations.
Proposed Solution
Add a flag to control whether Claude Code uses the hook’s stdout as context.
Alternative Solutions
I can't find alternatives
Priority
Medium - Would be very helpful
